stopping without delay open polemics on their part. USSR CPSU 
found it expedient to agree with this proposal and to postpone 


for a certain period of timerpublication of materials, aimed 


against splitting activities of Chinese CP leadership until 
receiving reply of Chinese CP leadership on appeals mentioned 
above. This is dictated only by our care for unity of communist 


-movement and not in the least is a sign of weakness or of absence 


of arguments, as Chinese CP leaders are trying to misrepresent, 
ΤῈ Chinese leaders are not going to meet this proposal of the’ 


fraternal CPs half way, Marxist-Leninist CPs will have no other 


way out but, to accept the challenge of Chinese leaders and to 
express their views openly in press, as it was stated in our 


letter. We would like to stress once more that USSR Central 


Committee is now definitely adhering to the estimation given in 


its letter to the policy of a Chinese leadership and, a factional 


activity in socialist community and international communist move- 
ment and necessity to fight against them. Feb. 15. USSR CENTRAL

reflects that some Satellite parties are not in complete accord 


with Moscow with respect to resolving the Chinese-Soviet dispute.

‘Re New York airtel dated 2/15/64, | Ai 


The verbatim content of the letter of the Central 

Committee. (CC), Communist Party, Soviet Union (CPSU), which 
was turned over to N¥ 694-S* in New York City on 2/15/64 by Υ ἡ 
3 S, 


his Soviet contact was telephonically furnished to the 
Chicago Office during the morning of 2/16/64. On this same 
date, the Chicago Office provided a copy of the verbatim 
text of this letter to CG 5824-S*, 


‘Upon receipt of the verbatim text of this communi- 
cation from CC, CPSU, CG 5824-S* decided ‘that because of 
the communication's importance and because of ‘the urgency ‘|, 
placed upon this message in.connection with its delivery by 
the CPSU to the CPUSA, it would be most expedient and ) 
important for him τὸ personally get the ‘text of this letter 
to GUS HALL, General Secretary, CPUSA, who was at the time 
in Minneapolis, Minnesota. HALL also had previously been 
informed by CG 5824-S* of the pending delivery of an important 
communication from the CPSU, the exact content of which was 
unknown, ‘and because of this ‘HALL had: upon his departure from 
Chicago on 2/13/64 informed CG 5824-S* where he would be 
staying in Minneapolis and ‘that he would be completely 
available to CG 5824-S*.at all times for contact,

Accordingly, CG 5824-S#, in order to transmit this 
message to HALL, secured reservations on United Air Lines. , 
flight 493 and departed Chicago at 6:55 p.m., Sunday, 
2/16/64, and arrived in Minneapolis at approximately 8:10 
p.m, that date. On arrival, CG 5824-S* proceeded to the 
Ritz-Sheraton Hotel, Minneapolis, and met GUS HALL, At ὁ 
this time, he furnished him with the contents of the letter 
which had been received through the Solo apparatus from the 
CC, CPSU, HALL indicated he had attempted to contact 
CG 5824-S* on the preceding evening ‘without success concerning 
this item and, therefore, was extremely appreciative of the 
fact that CG 5824--5 had brought this item to him. 


Upon receiying the contents of this. letter from 
the CC, CPSU, HALL noted that he was neither surprised nor 
shocked with "sts contents. He was happy, however, with the’ 
CPUSA's timing of its article, which was supposed to have . 
appeared in the current edition of the week end "The Worker" 
‘on the subject matter dealing with unity of the international 
communist movement, because this article was directly in line 

with the CPSU position as stated, 


| In discussing this letter, HALL remarked that he 
was not sure as to how soon he night discuss this letter 
from CPSU with others in the leadership of the Party or ἴθ 
whom he might specifically take into his confidence and make 
aware of its receipt. He stated'he felt that there might — 
pe some opposition to the line set forth in the letter and 
the recommendations it made for a conference, The Ρϑορὶθ ἮΘ 
had in mind in this regard he noted were BOB THOMPSON, BE 
DAVIS, DOROTHY HEALEY and perhaps even GIL GREEN, In regard 
‘to HEALEY, he specifically commented that she might Jike _ 
"to hear from her Italian friends” before she committed 
herself, 


As to the possible composition of the delegation 
which might attend the conference referred to in the letter, 
HALL made no reference to any individual by name, He did, 
‘however, intimate that CG 5824-S* would, of course, be 3 
among ‘them. 


HALL then noted that recently HENRY WINSTON, a 


. Vice ‘Chairman, CPUSA, who is now temporarily residing in 
the Soviet Union but scheduled to return shortly to the

United States, had in a recent letter andicated ‘that his 
medical treatment in the Soviet Union had not been com- ' 
pleted, HALL stated that he now surmises that - perhaps 
WINSTON got wind of the plans for ‘such an international 
conference 45 proposed by the CPSU and might attempt to 
use the need for further medical: treatment in the Soviet 
Union as a guise to get him ‘back to the Soviet Union to 
attend this conference as a delegate. ‘However, HALL did 
not indicate he favored WINSTON's participation as a 
delegate at such a ‘conference and in fact was hopeful that 
perhaps the government. ἃ would pick up WINSTON's passport on 
his return, , 


CG 5824-S* returned to Chicago via Northwest 
Orient Airlines at 3:30 p.m., Monday, 2/17/64, from 
Minneapolis, He will meet with HALL again on that in- 
dividual's return to this city during the present week 
when HALL will be here to participate dn some national 
commission, CPUSA, meetings. . 


Close contact will be maintained with CG 5824-5* 
concerning the above matter and the Bureau will ‘be advised 
of any pertinent. developments. |

Dear Comrade Bea: 


Y can fully appreciate the problems that you have had in getting 
settled down toyour new assignment. I only wish that we could have 


been of greater assistance to you. But on some of the questions,: . 


we do not: seem to be in a position to be of much help. But be 
assured that we are trying and will continue to do so. Ono of 

the problems has been that we take up questions and we think we 
have them solved and a month or two later I hear that it has not 
been solved. So you have been on the end of the unsolved problems 
during these months. 


Now about sone of the specific questions. We did send a message 
to the Anniversary and I understand that Castro actually read part 
of it in his speech. And we did receive a cable acknowledging the 


message. In fact, we have sent messages on every occasion throughout 


these years but this was the first time that we received an 
acknowledgement. Here I think it is clear that the main problem , 


has beon an attempt by U.S. authorities to cut off all communications. 


Second, About the young porson who is there and who was there ,when | 
you got there. You should know that she is there against our advice. 


She did not have to go there. I have sent her many messages 
suggesting that she should come home. Please understand that as 
far as we are concerned she is a very good person. She means very 
well but she need not be there. If she wants to sottle there on 
her own, of course ‘we have no objections. But on the other hend, 
85 far as we know there are no problems about hor returning home. 


Now gbout some political questions. First, a word about our own 
Party. You should know that we have many very difficult problems, 
Legal questions of indictments, trials, not to speak of prison 
sentences hanging over our heads like a sword, We have now 
completed 15 years of rather extreme political persecution. We 
are under constant surveillance by every possible means. We are 
still an outlawed organization, not only legally but politically 
and socially. The waves of revisionism and then dogmatism and 
doctrinairism left some very deep scars on our Party. These waves 
swept our leadership from top to bottom. Then in those crucial . 
years, most of our leadership in the important districts, national 
leadership, our cadre around the newspaper and magazines deserted, 
In some districts we lost the complete leadership. To this | 
background of problems and defections you have to add the fact 
that for years we had no youth movement. So there is a clearly. 
visible gap as deep as the Grand Canyon between the old cadre 

and the new cadre that is now growing. The old cadre is good 


but in many aroas, tired and sickly and the young cadre as yet

has not had the experience and maturity to take over. Why am I 
telling you this? Because this partly explains why we are not 
always adle to move as fest as we want to and why many things are 
left undone. We are literally going through the process of 
rebuilding the Party from top to bottom. 

Frankly, under the circumstances, I think we are accomplishing — 
miracles and in giving you this picture I do not want to give you 
any idea that I or my co-workers are pessimistic. But boing as 
it is that you have beon away from the scene for a number of years, ἡ | 
I thought I would just give you that brief summary, 


1 am suro you have a better grasp of this problem but I'm afraid ’ 
very ofton our friends around the world do not fully understand 
the problems that we face, | ‘ 


Now, about the political work and what we have done and are doing ‘around 


a 


the overall problem of Cuba dnd U.S. relations. We could approach this - 

problem in two ways. We could go through the forms of doing things 

and in doing so, we could even make headlines. As a small narrow 

group we could make noise but not be very effective. Or on the other 
hand we could take an attitude that it:is possible to actually make ἡ 

a political imprint and, to change the relationships. We have taken 
this latter approach. “his approach cemands that we reach the millions 
of our people on the minimum issue regarding Cuban-U.S5,. relations, 


This minimum issue is to convince the people of the United States . 


that Cuba is an independent nation, must have a right to determins 
its own course and thet it is to the best self-intersst of our people 
and nation to have good, normal relations with the Republic of Cuba, 
And finally, to appeal to the moral and ethical feelings of. the 
millions about the wrongness of the imperialist policies of U.S. 
imperialism. This kind of an approach means that we as Communists 

are not always publicly in the limelight. It means we must utilize * 


all of the broadest possible avenues of expression and it means that . +s, ' 


we must use the divisions in the ranks of the ruling circles. And 
I think life has proven that these divisions are not only here. 


They are very important and that we have been able to utilize them. “ΠῚ 


Our aim is to croate a mass atmosphere where an invasion will not 
ve possible, to create a mass atmosphere that will make it compulsory 


and possible for the powers that be to change relationships between - «'' 


the two countries. This is the mass base for raising the question ou, 
of ending the economic blockade and for the normalization of relations. | 


I think we are doing some very important work in this regard. Very 
often it is work that does not appoar in public print or in headlines. 
Now whathas made this work of ours more difficult? Because there - 


rl 


are small sects, small grouplets here who have taken the other path., « 
‘| They are not convinced that anything can be done about U.S, imperialism,

They arc not convinced that anything can be done to blunt tho 
aggressive policies. 5o they go out tomake headlines, to make 

a record. The masses do not follow them. In fact, they are 
disruptive. Theso grouplots are not big. One can count their 
adherents on one's fingers. They are noisy. They sound militant, 
and unfortunately it is these grouplets that have had the continued 
contact and support of our Cuban friends. This has boen a wrong 
estimate of the American scene. “or instance, we have boen 
working for some time in getting a broad mass movement on the 
question of breaking the travel ban on visits to Cuba, These 
Little groups got together a narrow delegation heavily sprinkled 
with CIA agents, Trotskyites, and then through our Cuban friends 
they made arrangements for the trip last sumer. For the punposes 
of winning this fight, this was a negative disruptive move. 

Since their return, threo of them have already openly admitted 
voing CIA agents and the rest have moved into greener disruptive 
pastures, ‘hore is a possibility now that a very sizeable number 
of editors of college newspapers are going to work for 8 broad, °. 
meaningful delegation to Cuba, *his kind of a delegation would’ 

be a challenge to the travel ban, But again, the disruptive groups 
are working for a narrow group that will get headlines but nothing 
more. When the hurrican hit, we could‘have celled for the Panty : 
collecting clothing and relief. But this would not have had much 
meaning. Instead, we decided to utilize this occasion in the 
attempt to move again broad masses into action. So we worked with. 
broad organizations and trade unions for this purpose. in this . 
sense the Red Cross could have been a very useful instrument as 

a means of moving broad masses of workers and people into Cuban’ 
relief, 


These, groups unfortunately have had the control of such organizations 
as the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, again because of their contact 
with our Cuban friends, Now they have dissolved: this organization 
and in group went to work for China, distributing literature. So | 
as long as theselittle groups have had contact with and the support 4]. « 
of our Cuban friends, it has been vory difficult for us to give ᾿ 
this kind of leadership to these movements. We have raised this. 
question many times but there has been no results. We have an 

urgent need and a desire to establish closer ties and relationships 
with our Cuban friends. “his would facilitate our work very much. an

Who are these sectarian grouplets? They are the worst of the 
Trotskyites, a handful of anti-Cormunists, expelled from the Party 
sruptive and liquidationist acts, such as Milt Rosen, 
and it has been possible for them to retain their 
r Cuban friends through the law firm of Victor Rabinowitz 
who, legally represents the Government of Cuba in the United States, 
But he is also the political and financil center of those anti-party 
groups. As long as two years ago, I sent information about the

On 2/19/64, there was réceived at a New York drop 
a letter from the Canadian CP_saclosing a letter received by 
the Canadian CP from LIBBY-HARES, and her husband, who are 
Canadian CP representatives in Cuba. From the information 
contained therein, NY 694-S* is of the opinion that the afore- 
said letter was written by PARKS in December, 1963, at the 


time when FIDEL CASTRO arrived in Moscow for a visit to ‘the 
Soviet Union. The text of the aforesaid letter is as follows: 


'May be a'taste of things to come, that is the 
pessimistic view over the president-to-be-elected in Mexico, 
lately unveiled by the PRI. People who have read Politica _ 
are depressed to find Lombardo in full support for the PRI 
and a right-wing PRI candidate. What is the name - Diaz 
Ordaz or vice versa? And a Cuban pessimist felt there would 
be one year more of relations with Mexico, until the new man 
takes office the end of this year, But perhaps we dont need 
to be pessimistic these days.

"The Leyland bus sale to Cuba has rejoiced everyone ~ 
and on top of that the massacre in Panama has given the press 
something to write about (has a taste of Amritsar, no?). The 
Cuban students are going to hoist the Panamanian flag on the 
monument to the Maine, the decapitated monument. Lyndon J 
is finding out what his job implies. 


"There would be an interesting line of investigation 
for Canadians in establishing what Canada lost in theprocess 
of the US and UK coming to terms in America. It invokes seeing 
the relationship between Venezuela (1895), Cuba, Boer War, 
Panama, Venezuela ('02) and Alaska - all seen in context of 
conflict and adjustment between imperialisms. 


"Pidel's anniversary speech you will have sean in Pravda. " 
It continues the definition of Cuba's readiness to do business. 
When you think of it, there is said to be one billion dollars 
in book value of U.S. asets here - no doubt largely re-invested 
profits, Then U.S. exports to Cuba in '57 ran slightly under 
600 million ($577 mil1)-- and according to Fidel, the U.S. 
consumers are paying $500 million extra for sugar. 


1411 speculative figures - but they indicate the 
magnitudes at stake. We are enchanted with life as it is, says 
‘Fidel; we can wait. Let our grandchildren discuss it with the 
U.S, 


"The Cuban budget is just out. The papers (perhaps 
from experience?) give it little coverage or explanation, It 
is called a balanced budget at highest-ever figure - $2,399 
mill, In fact it provides for a reserve (surplus) of $413 million, 
or $383 million more than last years surplus. Expenditures are 
reduced $78 million Er 63, and revenues are estimated at $305 
million more. Investments are $158 million less than in 63. 
Of course the actual 63 figures (as distinguished from the 
estimated ones) have not been published, so the comparison is 
not precise, 


"The new soviet trade agreement at $661 million for 
64 is just signed, plus soviet credit for $159 million, apparent- 
ly to make up deficit on Cuban side of trade. Papers are not 
strong on these questions. | 


NY 100-134637 


Ne saw B's book only for a few minutes this summer 
past at his house, ‘En route we saw a tremendous review in the 
New S_atesman (and there was a major, front page one in Times 
Lit Supplt) indicating that it was making heavy impact on 
British intellectual world, Since then have seen nothing. 


“Pidel's visit announced yesterday took us all by 
surprise. The Voice says he was shivering on arrival ~ actually 
it has been shiversome here - almost enough to keep us from 
having breakfast and mid-day meal on the errace, Almost. At 
this moment some trees have reddish leaves - the tree near the 
house is half leafless, with buds, and half in full leaf. 


"'§o what the consultations are about we shall perhaps 
know by the time this reaches you - at least by the time of a 
reply." | 


NY 694-S* advised that "PRI" mentioned in paragraph 
1 of the above-mentioned letter has reference to the political 
party now in control in Cuba. 


Informant further advised that "LOMBARDO" mentioned 
in paragraph 1, has referenceg to LOMBARDO TOLEDANO,' Head of 
the trade unions in Mexico, . 


NY 694-S* was unable to identify the individual 
referred to as "8'"}, mentioned in paragraph 1 above, but suggested 
that possibly this individual is known to CG 5824-S*,

Dear Comrades: 


Comrade Gus Hall conveys to you our warm thanks for 
heeding our call of proletarian solidarity. He appreciates 
your speed in expediting this matter. This should improve 
our situation and our work immensely. 


Comrade Hall has further asked that I advise you that 
he is now working on a basic article on the themcof 
communist unity and the need for international solidarity 
as against the splitting and divisive tactics of the CPC, 


We wish to thank you for your rapid information 
regarding the convocation of a meeting of CPs. However, 
Comrade Hall is of the opinion, as is our entire leadership, 
that those who favor postponement are only giving time 
to the splitters. We do, however, understand your position 
and attitude on the heeding of the request for postponenent 
requested by some fraternal parties. 


. Comrade Hall] further desired we convey our heartfelt 
thanks to you for your offer to receive 20 comrades to 
spend their vacation in the USSR in 1964, We hope that 
circumstances will make it possible to fulfill this invitation. 
As you know, we are still involved in the maze of the 
Mc Carran laws repressive litigations at this moment and 
this makes it very difficult for our leading people to 
travel, However, the mass struggles developing amongst 
the working class for economic demands, in the fight 
against poyerty and in the mass atruggles on civil rights, 
may all have an affect on winning the fight against the 
Mc Carran law, even in an election year. 


Comrade Hall again asks that we on behalf of the 
party thank you for the care and attention given to 
Comrade Winston. 


With warm fraternal greetings,

Dear Comrades: 
In the month of November during the visit of 2 


delegation fron the USSR in which Comrade Vergelis 


participated, a meeting was held with a number of 
comrades and friends. A proposal was made by some worker 
in the embassy that the pamphlet - Jews in the Soviet 
Union - be reprinted in the U.5, ‘The proposal also 
contained the promise that a corrected version of this 


' pamphlet would bé sent from Moscow, When this | 


epted here, certain people, amongst thew 
wade contractual arrangements with printers for ἰδ 
publication of the updated and corrected document bc 

which was to come here fron Moscow. Despite the numerous 
yYequests, we have not to date received this pamphlet, 
nor have we received a single reply to comiunications 
sent to the enbassy by the people involved. Now we have 
no pamphlet but do have additional debts since we are 
expected to £111 our contract with the publisher.

Re my telephone call to New York 2/15/64, 


At approximately 12:30 a.m., 2/15/64, CG 5824-5S* 
advised he had just received a "hectic" telephone call from 
ELIZABETH GURLEY FLYNN, Chairman, Communist Party, USA 
(CPUSA). FLYNN advised CG 5824-S* that she had just talked 
to JOHN ABT, the attorney for HENRY WINSTON, and that ABT 
advised her that WINSTON's passport had already or would 
expire in a few days and that if he did not check into the 
United States Embassy for travel papers, he would be unable 
‘to return to the United States. In addition, ABT told her 
that he would need travel papers to stop over in London, 
England, and, therefore, would have to contact the British 
Embassy in Moscow for such permission, 


According to FLYNN, ABT had sent a letter to 
WINSTON with instructions regarding his passport, bot they 
would not arrive in time. She further noted that ABT did 
not want to dispatch a cablegram in his name directly to 
WINSTON containing this Information. 


FLYNN stated, in connection with the above, that 
the reason she was contacting CG 5824-S* was because she 
wanted him to get a hold of GUS HALL immediately and inform

him of this problem, She also wanted CG 5824-S* to see 
what he could do through "his friends" to get instructions 
through to WINSTON regarding his passport and travel plans, 


Since CG 5824-S* was aware that NY 694-S* had a 
meeting pending at that time with his Solo contact in New 
York City, he requested that the following message be 
furnished to New York and relayed to NY 694-S* so that he 
might orally transmit it to his Solo contact: 


HENRY WINSTON's passport is about ready to or has 
already expired and, therefore, he must ga to the United 
States Embassy in Moscow and ask for a renewal, He probably 
will not be given a renewed passport, but they will un- 
doubtedly give him some travel papers on which to return to 
‘the United States, In addition, since WINSTON wants to and 
has scheduled stops in Great Britain in connection with his 
return and since he wil] not have a passport, he should also 
contact the British Embassy in Moscow for papers which will 
allow him to stop over and travel in Great Britain, 


‘In line with CG 5824-S*'s request, the above dinfor- 
mation was telephonically furnished the New York Office 
during the late morning of 2/16/64.

RE: .SOLO 
100~428091 


World Federation of Democratic Youth (communist dominated), "peace 
movements” and others in an effort te.create dissident organizations 
based on racial and national principles. 


The CPSU considers that it has an international duty to 
categorically denounce the dissident policy of the Chinese and is 
faced with the question of when to convene a conference of 
representatives of all Communist Parties, Although many fraternal 
parties, including the CPSU, have been in favor of such a conference, 
it was not considered advisable to hasten its convocation until such 
time as favorable conditions for carrying out such a conference 
had been established. This would include the settling of outstanding 
differences in the Sino-Soviet xift. However, the Chinese leaders 
are trying to postpone the opening of a conference and want to use 
the delay for setting up factions and. pseudoparties to counterpoise 
them against the Marxist-Leninist parties. 


The CPSU concludes that the efforts of the Chinese to 
disorganize the ranks of the communist movement require a joint 
rebuttal by the Marxist-Leninist parties, Therefore, the CPSU 
considers the need to call an international conference as urgent 
and deems it inexpedient to postpone such a conference for a 
jong period.of time, The CPSU indicated that it will set forth its 
views in more detailed form in a subsequent communication. 


OBSERVATION : 


On 12-11-63 we disseminated to top officials of the 
Government a summary of a letter dated 11-29-63 sent by Soviet 
Premier Khrushchev to MAO Tse~tung dealing with the amelioration 
of Sino~Soviet relations. The recent letter from the Central

to the Communist Part 


The Communist Party of the Soviet Union, as well 
as other fraternal parties, has been doing its best to 
eliminate the differences with the Communist Party of 
China. These efforta include a letter from the Central 
‘Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to the 
Contral Committee of the ‘Communist Party of China dated 
November 29, 1963, urging the Chinese leadership to put an 
end to open polemics and suggesting a number of measures 
ained at strengthening cooperation between the Seviet Union 
and China. The Communist Party of China gave no official 
answer to the letter from the Central Committee of the 
Communist Party of the Soviet Union and none of the measures 
designed to normalize Sino-Seviet relations has met with 
positive response on the part of the Communist Party of 
China. On the contrary, the: Chinese leadership unleashed 
a large-scale campaign against the basic principles of the 
world communist movement and intensified ita dissident 
campaign against the Marxist~Leninist parties. The Chinese 
press has been publishing insulting fabrications against 
the fraternal parties and particularly the Communist Party 
of the Soviet Union. Slanderous broadcasts in foreign 
languages are being beamed ali over the world by the Chinese 
and anti-Soviet brainwashing .o ys people has reached 


immense proportions in china.“ Pisa

An article published February 4, 1964, by 

"Jen Min Jih Pao" and the journal "Hung Chi" (official rf 

organs of the Communist Party of China) was the peak | 

of the Chinese subversive campaign. Rejecting in this article 

the proposals of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to 

put an ond to open polemics, the Chinese leadership presented 

the proposals as a display of weakness on the part of the 

Communist Party of the Soviet Union. The article contained 

an open appeal to split fraternal parties which do not share 

the anti-~Leninist conceptions of the leaders of the Communist 

Party of China. The Chinese leadership has transferred its 

diasident activities to such world democratic organizations 

as the World Federation of Trade Unions, World Federation 

of Democratic Jouth, "peace movenents" and others. In fact, 

the Chinese leadership is destroying these organizations 

and trying to create dissident organizations based on 

‘yacial and national principles. (< ᾿ 


, Since the leadership of the Communist Party of 
China is greatly harming the interests of the working 

class struggling for its national liberation, the Communist 
Party of the Soviet Union considers it imperative to 
categorically denounce the dissident policy of Peking. 

This is urgently required by the fundamental interests of 
the communist movement of the socialist camp and by the 
interests of all working people. The Central Committee of 
the Communist Party of the Soviet Union decided te consider 
the question of the dissident action by the Chinese leaders 
within the communist movement at its current plenary session. 
The report and all of the documents of the plenary session 
pertaining to this problem will be published. The Communist 
Party of the Soviet Union will carry out in the future, 

as it did in the past, the policy directed at the consolidation =. 
of the unity of the international comminist movement based 
on Marxist-Leninist principles, 7 


In view of the situation which has developed in 
the international communist movement, therve arises anew the | 
question of when to convene a conference of representatives —

{stno-sovier RELATIONS ΝΆ 


of all Communist Parties, Some time ago many fraternal 
parties, including the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, 
being in favor of such a conference, did not consider it 
advisable to hasten its convocation, It was deemed 
necessary to create favorable conditions for carrying out 
the conference, to settle outstanding issues and to achieve 
unity with the leadership of the Communist Party of China. 
Now the real objectives set by the leaders of the Communist 
Party of China have become quite clear, They do ποῖ just ! 
‘openly call for a split in the communist movenent but are 
practically carrying it out, At present the Chinese leaders 
are trying to postpone the opening of the conference, 

Having taken the course aimed at splitting the communist 
movenent they want to use the delay for setting up groups, 
factions, pseudoparties and to counterpoise them against 

the Marxist-Leninist parties. At the same tine they want to 
defer active struggle against their anti-Leninist views 
within the ranks of the fraternal parties develop ἃ 
wide dissemination of their own views | ἀζ 


The Chinese leaders have concentrated their main 
blow against the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, resorting 
to the same methods which have been used by anti-Leninist groups, 
especially by the Trotskyites, to make it easter for them to 
disorganize the ranks of the communist movement, All this 

will require a joint rebuttal by the Marxist-Leninist parties, 
Therefore, it would be inexpedient to postpone the conference 
for a long period of time, The calling of the conference, 

in the opinion of the Central Committee of the Communist 

Party of the Soviet Union, becomes more and more urgent. 

The views of the Central Committee of the Communist Party 

_ of the Soviet Union on the conference in a wore detailed forn 
will be set forth in a subsequent communication BOS

Maxxist-Leninist principles, However, the following infor- 
mation, supplied by sources which have furnished reliable | 
information in the past, may bé of interest to you, 


_ In late 1962, the Communist Party of the Soviet 

Union (CPBU) expressed to the CPUSA its grave concern regard- 
ing the possibility that the Comeunist Party of China (CPC), 
using the issue of "racial brotherhood," might be placed in 
a favorable position to influence many African nations to ᾿ 
move closer to the Chinese sphere of influence, In order to. ει 
counter this possibility, the CPSU indicated ἐξ would like J 
‘to wend Henry Winston, CPUSA Vice-Chairman who was then on 
an extended visit in the Soviet Union, to Africa for the 
purpose of bolstering Soviet influence in that area of the 
‘world, The CPSU believed that Winston, an American Negro 
and an outstanding example of "imperialist brutality,” could ᾿ : 
possibly exert strong influence upon the African people and — 
rere be effective in countering the influence of the CPC in 

PACK, ' : . 


In connection with this matter, Winston contacted | 
the CPUBA and requested that it discuss in detail hiw proposed ΕΝ 
African trip, He indicated that if the CPUBA believed that . 
such a trip was feasible, he would txavel to Africa on behalf 7 
of the CPSU, but in the event the CPUSA did net concur in 
this plan, the trip would not be undertaken, 


A special meeting of the CPUBA National Board was 
held in March, 1963, in order to discuss Winston's proposed : 
African trip, It was brought out at this meeting that John . 
Abt, CPUSA attorney, believed it might be particularly dis~ | 
advantageous for the CPUSA to allow Winston to go to Africa 
in view ef the provisions of the Internal Security Act of | 
1950, According to Abt, the provisions of this Act night — 
make it a violation for Winston to go to Africa and it might 
also be a violation of the Act for Winston to express in Africa 
opinions critical of the United States, Abt indicated, in 
addition, that there might be numerous other Legal questions 
involved with respect to Winston's proposed African trip, In : 
view of Abt's remarks, it was decided that Winston should not ; 
go to Africa, | a

Re New York airtel dated 1/3/64, 


Referenced airtel reflects that NY 694-S* during 
the period of 12/30/63-1/2/64 had a series of conversations 
with LESLIE MORRIS, General Secretary of the Communist Party 
(CP) of Canada, in Montreal, At this time, MORRIS advised 
that the CP of Canada intends to hold their convention on or 
about Easter, 1964, and that they were inviting the CP, USA 
to send three fraternal delegates. 


On 2/21/64, CG 5824-S* advised SA RICHARD W, HANSEN 
as follows: 


In conversation with GUS HALL, General Secretary, 
CP, USA, on 2/21/64, ‘HALL raised the matter regarding ; 
possible fraternal delegates from the CP, USA to the na- if 
tional convention of the CP of Canada, but stated he had not 
yet decided who will attend from this Party or how many such 
individuals he would designate. However, HALL remarked that 
he had heard that CLAUDE LIGHTFOOT, as a fraternal delegate, 
attended a recent CP of Canada plenum and had made a "hit" 
with the Canadians and, therefore, he was thinking that 
CLAUDE should once again be a nenber of this Party's dele- | 
- gation. In addition, HALL noted that LIGHTFOOT had a great 
many personal problems locally with his family which have 
been extremely trying for him, Since he cannot be sent on oll

Re New York airtels dated 1/22/64 and 2/4/64, 


Referenced New York airtel of 1/22/64, page 3, 
item 4, relates to a comnunication from GUS HALL to the 
Communist Party, Soviet Union (CPSU), regarding the matter 
| of a possible United States trade union delegation to the 
| Soviet Union for May 1, 1964. Referenced New York airtel 
of 2/4/64, page 3, item 3, sets forth response of CPSU to 
HALL's communication and their invitation to the CPUSA to 
send a 4-man American trade union delegation to the Soviet 
Union for May Day, 1964, 


In connection with the above, CG 5824-S* advised 
SA RICHARD W, HANSEN that GUS HALL, General Secretary, CPUSA, 
on 2/19/64 had stated that he was taking the matter of a 
trade union delegation up with individual trade union leaders | 
in the Party. He also noted that he intended during his μ΄. 
participation in the National Trade Union Commission meeting 7 
in Chicago on 2/20/64 to take aside certain people and discuss 
individually with them the CPSU proposition for an American 
trade union delegation on May 1. As of 2/I9/64, HALL stated 
he had not made any decision regarding participation by any 
one particular individual in such a delegation, if one is 


actually formed.

Re my airtel dated 2/20/64. 


ες On 2/21/64, CG 5824-S*, advised SA RICHARD ἡ, HANSEN 
that he had had occasion on that date to speak privately and 
confidentially to GUS HALL, General Secretary, Communist 
Party, USA (CPUSA), and at this time had informed him of the 
pending receipt of funds from the CP, Soviet Union (CPSU), 
CG 5824-S* noted that he had given HALL the information con- 
cerning ‘these funds in very general terms and in the manner 
which he had outlined and which is set forth in referenced 
airtel. HALL made no specific inquiry as to the exact amount 
of funds which the CPSU was supplying or as to the date of the 
funds pending arrival. He was extremely pleased with the 
rapid approval given to this Party's fund request and was 
happy to know that the funds would be arriving soon, 


The only comment HALL had at the time regarding (le 
these new funds which the Party was to receive was that now δῥ 
it would be a good idea to consider some concrete action 
towards investment of then. 


The above is for the information of the Bureau and

NOTE: 


The Soviet contact of WY 694-8* has requested 
the informant to furnish hin the identities of three 
individuals to “work with us (Soviets)." We have worked 
out a plan to refer individuals in our control to the 
Seviets through NY 694-S* but the first two candidates 
considered for referral were not approved by the informant. 
The informant has now approved a third candidate for the 
operation and New York is conducting additional background 
investigation on this individual prioxs to submitting a 
specific plan for the referral, This matter is being 
followed closely inasmuch as the Seviets have indicated 
a desire to receive the nanes of individuals to be used by 
them soon and algo because it presents a unique opportunity 
for us to penetrate Soviet espionage activities in this 
country.

Polish stallions, His remarks at this time were as follows: 


During his present trip to Minneapolis, HALL had 
again spoken to his brother and his brother now is in favor 
of accepting the offer of the gift of purebred Polish 
Stallions. According to HALL, the new tariff law which th 
United States Government had been considering placing in 
effect against the importation of such horses has now been 
discarded and instead the United States Government is now

a good possibility that the Party may request in the future

SINO-SOVIET RELATIONS 


Summary of Note Delivered by the 
Soviet Foreign Ministry to the 
Chinese Embassy, Moscoy, Russir, 


in February, 1964 


The Soviet Foreign Ministry considers it necessary 
to draw attention to the character of broadcasts by Radio 
Peking in'the Russian language, In these broadcasts materi-~ 
als are used that contain slanderous attacks on the Soviet 
Union, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Sovi 
Government, Attempts are being made to set the Soviet people 
‘against the leadership of the Communist Party of the Soviet = 
Union. For example, the slanderous editorial in “Hung Chi" 
("Red Flag") and Jen Min Jih Pao” ("People's Daily") of 
February 4, 1964, was broadcasted in the Russian language 
125 times during an 80-hour period, ("Red Flag and "People's 
Daily" are official organs of the Communist Party of Chins.) 
Almost every broadcast by Radio Peking is filled with attacks 
on the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the Soviet .Govern- 
ment and the Soviet people, The broadcasts ‘by Radio Peking 
have aroused the indignation of the working people of the 
Soviet Union, who in numerous letters to Soviet social organ- 
izations are asking if such broadcasts ‘are really from Radio 
Peking or if the name of Radio Peking is being used for | 
provocatory purposes by the "Voice of America” and CHIANG 
Kai-shek's Government, 


: In its efforts to spread as wide as possible: all 
kinds of fabrications about the Soviet people and the Communist 
Party of the Soviet Union, Radio Peking has violated inter- 
national rules pertaining to the use of radio frequencies of 
special assignment, which are allotted for aviation, marine 
. fleet, radio telephone and radio telegraph, This has jeopardized 
] the work of aviation and marine fleets of the Soviet Union and 
δ other countries, Such unscrupulous methods have caused serious 
—— damage to the friendship of the Soviet and Chinese peoples and 
have aided the forces of anticommunism in their fight against 
the international communist movement, The Soviet Ministry for 
MoM! σπὼ τεσσ. Foreign Affairs strongly protests such actions and calls upon

talkie to ALEKSEY KOLOBASHKIN at the Soviet Mission to the UN, 
requesting that the latter meet him at the Armstrong rendezvous 
on Friday, 2/14/64, at 6:00 p.m. Not ‘knowing whether KOLOBASHKIN 
had received this walkie talkie message or not, NY 694-S*, on 
2/14/64, went to the "Helen" drop and left a noded message, the 
plain text of which was as follows: 


"Received your message about the important 
letter you have for me. Meet me at Armstrong 
on Saturday, 6:00 p.m. If you cannot meet me 
on Saturday, then meet me on Sunday at Armstrong 
at 6:00 p.m,” 


Although the informant had in his possession micro- 
film containing other messages for the Soviets, he did not leave 
this microfilm at the "Helen" drop, but proceeded to the Armstrong 
rendezvous, thinking that possibly, if KOLOBASHKIN had received 
‘the walkie talkie message of 2/13/64, the latter might go to the 
Armstrong rendezvous at 6:00 p.m. on 2/14/64. 


KOLOBASKHIN was not at the Armstrong rendezvous, ᾿ 
and NY 694-S* then returned to the "Helen" drop to ascertain 
whether or not the microfilm message requesting a meeting with 
KOLOBASKHIN on 2/15/64, had been picked up. He ascertained 
that the said message had been picked up. 


At 6:00 p.m, on Saturday, 2/15/64, NY 694-S* went to 
the Armstrong rendezvous where henet KOLOBASKHIN. The latter 
told the informant that he could remain with NY 694-S* for 
only a few minutes inasmuch ashis "chief" was waiting for him 
in the area, 


KOLOBASHKIN then handed to NY 694-S* a roll of micro- 
film containing a message from Moscow. The contents of this 
message were furnished to the Bureau and Chicago by NY airtel 
dated 2/15/64. Referring to the message from Moscow, KOLOBASHKIN 
merely commented that in his opinion "it looks like a break with 
the Chinese.'' He stated that Moscow must have notified him and

NY 694-S* simultaneously regarding their sending the message 


from the-CPSU to the CPUSA. He said that if he had any previous» 


knowledge of the receipt of this letter, he would have arranged 
a definite contact with NY 694-S* on Friday, 2/14/64. 


KOLOBASHKIN further stated that he had not received 
the informant's walkie talkie message of 2/13/64, and suggested 
that possibly there was something mechanically wrong with the 
informant's walkie talkie apparatus. He suggested that possibly 
NY 694-S* should use a new set of batteries on each occasion 
when he transmits a message. KOLOBASKHIN stated that that . 

_ is the procedure which he follows in sending walkie talkie 
messages to the informant. ‘He suggested that NY 694-S* send 
him a test message on 2/18/64, | ΕΝ

"In accordance with this the question arises 
about returning home after her recovery." 


| ufile 100-435515, is the 
Bufile 100-333343.) 


| KOLOBASHKIN also told NY 694-S* to advise GUS HALL 
that the CCCPSU invites 20 American CP functionaries to go to 
Moscow for a months vacation during 1964, According to 


- 3 « 


NY 100-134637 


KOLOBASHKIN, the Soviets desire that GUS HALL and ELIZABETH 
GURLEY FLYNN be among such functionaries to go to Moscow. 
KOLOBASHKIN said that while in the Soviet Union, the aforesaid 
functionaries would be given medical attention, rest and an 
opportunity to visit various parts of the Soviet Union, 


It was then agreed between KOLOBASHKIN and NY 694-S* 
that they would have their next personal meeting at the “Berkman” 
rendezvous on March 18, 1964, unless some occasion arises 
whereby it would become necessary for them to meet sooner, 

It was further agreed that the next drop operation should be 
at the "Margaret" drop, 


NY 694-S* then delivered to KOLOBASHKIN a roll of 
microfilm containing the following:

issue of "Time" magazine. Page 52 thereof contains a, story 
entitled "Lawyers", the text of which concerns EDWA | and 
is as follows: , 


Gai ΒΩ) 


"Looking Backward? ae 


"Im the course of piling up a $50 million fortune, 
Ohio Businessman Edward Lamb has driftdd farther and ὁ 
farther away from his first profession-the law. Last 
week, in a speech at the Harvard Business School, Lamb 
offered an explanation of sorts: ‘The importance and 
influence of the kgal profession in the United States and 
elsewhere is rapidly déclining.' The lawyer, said some- 
time Lawyer Lamb, is being supplanted in power and 
influence by the professional manager, ‘In my opinion, the 
American and international leaders of the fisture will come 
increasingly from our schools of business administration 
and less and less from the historical patterns of the law 
schools.' 


N¥ 100.134637 


"As an attorney, Lamb βρθολαϊζοα in representing 
labor against management; he handled an occasional no- 
fee civil liberties case, and likes to say tat he had 
‘the largest nonpaying law practice in the U.S,’ But 
fact is, he made law pay well, earning as much as 
$200, 000 a year. During the Depression of the '30s he . 
invested in distress-priced stocks and real estate, and 
he prospered on ‘the price recovery of the '40s, Finding 
that business was 'less work and a lot more fun" than 
‘law, Lamb decided that ‘the way | to build up a big fortune 
is to get control of companies." He now controls two , 
dozen of them in such assorted industries as rubber tires 
and sugar-cane-harvesting equipment. For all his wealth, Lamb 
leans toward the left. At Harvard last week he urged 
admission of Réd China into the U.N. and a ‘new look! 
at U.S. relations with Cuba, 


"Lawyers, Lamb told his audience, tend to spend 
too much time looking backward. ‘The complex problems of 
our technological society of today are being resolved by 
men who make decisions quickly based on facts and dta 
quickly assembled, ‘Last year's figures:, are of only 
historical importance as we set up profit planning 
against future targets. Professional managers, therefore, 
look forward. 


| "tLawyers on the other hand, are precedent-gatherers. 
When a dispute comes into a lawyer! s office, what does he 
do? He rushes to the law books ‘and tries to find a similar 
case; he looks for a set of facts of a similar nature to 
the present issue. He then tres to persuade a modern 
court that it too should rely on the doctrine of stare 
decisis (stand by past decisions) in settling a modern, 
complex problem, because a judicial precedent, which may 
have been established a decade or a century before, has 
been settled in a particular way. Why should anyone attempt 
to guide a society by looking backwards through a rearview 
mirrow? '

is as follows: a | ᾿

"Rdward Lamb. is a well known and respected | 
capitalist in the USA and, in my personal opinion, 
' ds more astute then Cyrus Eaton, and, if properly 
utilized, could now play an important role in Co 
furthering closer friendship between the Soviet ; 
Union and the USA, and as .a business tycoon, could 
᾿ς pave the way for gteatly improved trade relationships

6. A partially-coded message address to the CPSU, 
_the plain text of which is as follows: 


"To CPSU: 


"The following is a statement which was made 
on February 7, 1964, to the local and world press in 
reference to the CC CPC in ‘Hung Chi,' the ideological 
journal of the CPC's CC. The text.appeared in the 
'New York Times' of February 7, 1964, as published in 
Jenmin Jih Pao, | 


"As you know this is for publication or to be 
used in any effective manner which you wish to the CP 
press in socialist countries." ῃ 

"μιᾷ 


The statement is as follows: — Ths 13 IN ged M4 
“Statement of GUS HALL, CPUSA, on the editorial in *Hung Chi! 


"The latest statement of the Communist Party of China, 
appearing as an editorial in its theoretical publication 'Hung 
Chi' is one which demands detailed study and reply. It contains 
one point, however, which requires immediate reaction. 


"The statement presents a political and philosophial 
thesis seeking to justify the splitting of the working class and 
its organizations as a necessary and even a desirable thing. 

It is a thesis that glorifies irresponsible, disruptive factional 
activities aimed at aplitting Communist Parties, that sets 
disunity as a goal for which to strive. There is no other way 

in which one can interpret such statements as these: 'First, it. 
(the history of the international communist movement) demonstrates 
that like everything else, the working class movement tends to 
divide itself in two. ‘The/§ PHB ele between the proletariat and 
the ‘bourgeois is inevitably reflected in the communistkanks. ' 

'Or: united struggle, or even split and a new unity on a new basis 
~-such is the dialectics of the development of the international 
working class movement.’ 


NY 100-134637 


f 
i 


“A thesis which justified splitting its ranks can at 


no time-be-in the interest of the working class. It is a. 


disservice to the struggle for world peace, harmful for the 
people against imperialism and for colonial liberation, and 
detrimental to the struggles for democracy and for socialism. 
"To appeal to processes of growth through division 
in nature as an argument for splitting the working class 
movement ‘is a mechanistic, even fatalistic, approach which 


‘fails to take into account what is most impatant: the conscious 


human element and its influence in social development. 


"There is indeed a struggle within the ranks of the working ° 
class. It-is a struggle against capitalist ideology whose purpose 
is to devide the workers and set them against one another, The ., 
method of fighting against this influence is to fight for unity 
of the working class, for a common struggle against a common 
enemy... It cannot be fought by striving deliberately to split 


the working class. 


"Such ἃ thesis of disunity and splitting is neither 


_ new nor original. It has been the stock in trade of diverse 


anti-communist splinter groups for generations, serving always 


as a cloak for disruptive activities. 


"It is important to note that the promotion of 
disunity is defended as a necessary means of struggle 'a line 
which consists of "peaceful co-existence," "peaceful competition,” 
“peaceful transition," "a state of the whole people" and "a party 
of the whole people," that is, it is directed, amongst other 


things, against those who seek ‘the establishment of the broadest | 


possible unity in the struggle for world peace. 


"The thesis of the Communist Party editorial is a 
concept of defeatism ~~ a lack of confidence in the working 
class, in socialism, in Marxism-Leninism. Thre can be no other 
meaning concerning their statement of the CPSU: 'They have thus 
made a mess of the splendid socialist camp.' In the proof is the

"very opposite, the outstanding factor of todays world and is 

not the existence of 'a mess,' but rather the growing power 

of the socialist sector, the liberated and colonial peoples 

of the working class in the capitalist countries, who now exert 
the dominant influence in world relations. It is the recognition 
of this cardinal fact that gives the world communist movement its 
confident outlook for the victory over socialism and capitalism. 
The 'mess' is in the camp of imperialism which would be the only 
real benefit of any policy of splitting the world working class."

text of which is as follows:

him to ‘be advised that inasmuch as his passport had expired,

"CPSU against Soviet people, all communists against CP 
leadership. For example, slanderous editorials in Hung Chi 
and Jen Min Jih Pao from February 4 was broadcasted in Russian 
for the first two weeks 125 times during 80 hours. Almost 
every broadcast of Pekin radio is filled with materials that 
contain inadmissible attacks on CPSU, Soviet government and 
people. Such actions of Chinese organizations cannot but 
cause concern and protest of all those who care for friendship 
and unity of Soviet and Chinese peoples, Pekin broadcasts 
rouse indignation among working people of SU, who in numerous 
Letters to Soviet social organizations and institutions are 
often asking: Are such broadcasts really transmitted from 
Pekin. Isn't it name of Pekin used for provocatory purposes 
by “Voice of America!’ or by a station of Chung Kai Shek's 
rabble on Taiwan. To be finished on Thursday.”

The information above referring to WINSTON was 
telephonically communicated to the Bureau 2/25/64 for the

In discussions with CG 5824-S* relative to the 
subject matter contained in referenced airtels, he advised dee 
that when in New York during early February, 1964, he and 
NY 694-S* did raise the matter relating to the assignmen 
given NY 694-S* by his Soviet contact in regard to the 
encouraging of as many “of our young people" as possible to 
participate in the Foreign Service Scholarship Program. 
However, at that time because of pressures of other Party 
matters and because of NY 694-S*'s own commitments, they 
were unable to seriously discuss this assignment or formulate 
a joint plan of action or make recommendations in regard 
thereto, Since his return to Chicago, CG 5824-S* stated he 

' has been so deeply involved in other Party matters here and 
at the same time has spent almost two weeks in continuous 
contact with GUS HALL and for this reason has been unable 
‘to give additional consideration to the matter, Sime 
he feels that it is a very serious ‘request and one which 
requires a lot of thought and: planning, he wants to be able 
to discuss this in complete detail with NY 694-38, He feels 
that any recommendation must be carefully planned. In order

to do this, CG 5824-S* states that he contemplates some 
personal discussion with NY 694-S* in the very near future 

and at such time would do his utmost to see that they discuss 
this problem, The source noted, however, that the initial 
observations he made regarding this matter, which appear in 
referenced Chicaga airtel, are still valid. 


Chicago will follow this matter ‘closely and stress | 
with the source the importance thereof, ‘in order that some

Summary of letter from the Central Comnittee, 
Communist Party of China, to the Central 
Committee, Communist Party of the Soviet 


Union, dated February 20, 1964 


The Contral Committee of the Communist Party of China 
stated it had learned that the Central Committee of the Com 
munist Party of the Soviet Union had sent a letter dated 
February 12, 1964, to many fraternal parties proposing that 
an international conference of Comnaunist Parties be held, 

The Communist Party of China strongly protested the fact 
that it did not receive such a letter and referred to the 


‘Soviets as “double~-crossers,"' “double-dealers" and "chauvinists." 


Summary of letter from the Central Conumittee, 
Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to the 
Central Committee, Communist Party of China, 


dated February 22, 1964 . 


The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the 
Soviet Union acknowledged a letter from the Central Committee 
of the Communist Party of China dated February 20, 1964, stating 
that although the insulting tone of the letter morally obliged 


‘the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to leave it unanswered, 


a reply was being made in order to exclude the possibility of 
any atteapts to mislead "111-informed people," 


The Communist Party of the Soviet Union rejected the 
claim that it had acted in a sectarian manner by not sending 
its letter of February 12, 1964, to the Communist Party of 
China, stating it purposely had not done so because the Com- 
munist Party of China had repeatedly failed to answer proposals 
calling for joint measures to strengthen the unity of the inter- 
natioual communist movement, The Communist Party of the Soviet 
Union: stated it considered it necessary to inform fraternal 
parties of the fact that the Communist Party of China had 
failed to respond to proposals for strengthening the unity 


ave the international communist moverent and had continued to 


CSPOT anattienisimiattite 


intensify ites attack against Marxist-Leninist Parties.

ει The Communist Party of the Soviet Union stated that 
since the Communist Party of China persistently disregarded 


the various appeals made by the Communist Party of the Soviet 


Union and even depicted such appeals as a display of weaknoss, 
there was no need to send the letter of February 12, 1964, to 
the Communist Party of China, The Communist Party of the 


Soviet Union pointed out that ita letter of February 12, 1964, 


was written for the purpose of ending the abnormal currents 
existing in the communist movement and charged that the 


attempts of the Communist Party of China to brand the Com 


munist Party of the Soviet Union with words Like “chauvinistic — 
bad manners," “arbitrary actions" and “inatructions of the 


-allmighty" testified to the weakness of the position of the 


Communist Party of China and its desire to conceal its own. 
actions ry . , ᾿ ͵ 
The Communist Party of the Soviet Union further 
charged that the leadership of the Communist Party of China 
is trying to dictate to the Communist Parties of capitalist — 
countries when to start a revolution and how to carry it out, 
The Communist Party of the Soviet Union stated that the chau- 


vinistic manner of the Communist Party of China can be seen 


by its demand that it be furnished the letter of the Communist 


Party of the Soviet Union dated February 12, 1964, The Com 


munist Party of the Soviet Union questioned if the Communist 
Party of China really believes anyone would accept the tone 
of the demand and rush to carry out the demand, The Communist 
Party of the Soviet Union considered this as not only rude, 


put ridiculous as well. ' 


In conclusion, the Communist Party of the Soviet 


‘Union expressed its desire to do everything possible in order 


to unite the world communist movement on the basis of the 
fundamental principles of Marxish-Leninisa, The Communist 


‘Party of the Soviet Union also expressed its profound confi~ 


dence that the world communist movement will overcome the 
present difficulties, consolidate its ranks and achieve new 
successes in the struggle for the cause of the working class,

the current dissension in the ranks of the international μι. 
communist movement. The Communist Party, USA, National

International to the Central Committee of the Communist 
Party of the Soviet Union and is of the opinion that his

MEETING .OF COMMUNIST PARTY 


REPRESENTATIVES FROM EUROPEAN: 
SOCIALIST COUNTRIES, APRIL, 1964 


A source, who has furnished reliable infornation 
in the past, during March, 1964, advised as follows: 


As of late February, 1964, it was learned that a 
meeting of leading Communist Party (CP) representatives of 
the European socialist bloc countries, excluding Albania, 
was scheduled to be held in early April, 1964. This meeting 
will be scheduled for the purpose of discussing the status 
of the continuing ideological differences existing between 
the CP of the Soviet Union and the CP of China, as well as 
discussing those. matters relating to governmental differences 
existing between the USSR and the Peoples Republic of China, 
While attendance at this meeting will be limited to Party 
representatives from socialist bloc countries, there is a 
good likelihood that delegations from the CP of France and 
Italy may be invited since they represent the largest and 
more important Communist Parties in Europe outside of the 
socialist countries. The exact date when such a meeting 
will be held or ‘the location thereof was not known as of 
late February, 1964,

COMMENTS OF NORMAN FREED, COMMUNIST PARTY 

OF CANADA REPRESENTATIVE TO "WORLD MARXIST 
REVIEW," PRAGUE, REGARDING SYMPOSIUM IN AND 
TOUR OF. GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC, DECEMBER, 
1963 7 _. 


A source, who has furnished reliable information 
in the past, in-mid-March, 1964, advised as follows: 

During December, 1963, Norman Freed, the Comnunist 
Party (CP) .of Canada representative to the "World Marxist 
Review,” official theoretical organ of the international 
communist movement, published at Prague, Czechoslovakia, 
‘spent ten days in the German Democratic Republic (GOR) as 
part of a group of European, Latin American, and Canadian 
conrades attending a symposium and touring the country as 
guests of the GDR. In reporting on the results of this visit 
to the GOR, Freed made the following comments: 


Throughout the period, the visiting group traveled 
over much of the GDR and visited many industrial cities. 
What was learned during this time was that the Germans are 
beginning to apply the incentive payment to workers in order 
to increase production. As a result of this, productivity 
‘has increased and overall production is substantially better 
than a year ‘ago. 


Another surprise found while in the GDR was that 
now represented in the government are other minority parties 
working in coalition with the ruling Socialist Unity Party 
of Germany. Such minority party representation was found not 
only in local and provincial governments but was also found

DECEMBER, 1963 


in the national government aS well. This cane as a surprise 
‘because previously it had been believed that these parties 
had been eliminated. In talking to some of the people 
affiliated with these coalition parties, it was learned that 
many had been ex~Nazis and that they had no hesitancy in 
admitting this fact. They told about how they had returned 
to Germany after the war, renounced Nazism, and joined their 
current coalition parties. 


Another surprise was that in East Berlin and many 
other cities in the GOR it was found that many factories are 
being run on a 50-50 basis with private owners, This was 
particularly true in the optical and photographic industries. 
In talking to some of these owners, it was found that they 
had been retained as managers of these various plants. In 
most cases they seemed happy with the situation because in 
addition to their regular salaries they are also now sharing 
in the profits. Some of these owners even stated that they 
were doing better now than they had done before because now 
12 they run short of capital, all they have to do is go to 
the government and get more. Many noted that the governnent 
could not turn then down on such requests for capital since 
the government had a 50% investment in the business. 


In general, it appeared that the industrial-economic 
situation existing in the GDR today had improved over the past 
year and that the country was in better shape. 


In regard to the Christmas visits by friends and 
families from West Germany with relatives in the GR, the 
following was learned: 


Many of those in the GOR had written to friends and 
relatives in West Germany telling them they were starving and 
how they did not have this particular item or that item. Therefore, 
when these relatives and friends came from West Germany at 
Christmas they were loaded with many goods, food, and other items, 
However, what many GOR residents at this time did was to remove 


COMMENTS OF NORMAN FREED, COMMUNIST PARTY Rar

REVIEW," PRAGUE, REGARDING SYMPOSIUM IN

most of the materlal goods they possessed from their homes, 
like television sets, they would hide thelr food, and then 
try and show their visiting friends and relatives how poor 
they were supposed to be. Eventually, this fraud was exposed 
both by the government and the people. For example, the 
government went out of its way to stock all of the stores 

and at this tine almost anything could be purchased at con- 
trolled prices, When the visitors found things and conditions 
were not aS bad as had been pictured in the GOR, and that the 
people lived differently than had been portrayed by the West 
German Government and press, these people came back to West 
Germany and attacked their governnent and press for false 
stories about the GOR. All in all, the Christmas visits to 
the GOR created a generally more favorable impression of the 
GOR in the minds of most West German citizens. 


On political matters, the visiting group met with 
leaders of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany which included 
such. individuals as Walter Ulbricht, First Secretary, and Otto 
Grotewohl, Chairman of the Council of Ministers. These and 
‘other Party leaders emphasized that those present should not 
push the Soviet Union, Great Britain, or the United States 
for a German peace treaty. The Soclalist Unity Party of Germany 
and the GDR feel that this problem will be solved by the Germans 
themselves. Some day in the future they and the West Germans 
will get together and talk and there is a possibility. that some 
day a German Federation or even a German Union, without too 
many strings, could be arranged so that they can continue 
their own forms of government in the present areas. Many people, 
they remarked, in the West do not look unfavorably towards then. 
Therefore, they would like to urge that the communists and 
Communist Parties in other lands not overemphasize the question 
of the ‘German peace treaty. 


On the question of self-determination for the Gernan 
people, which has been raised by some Americans, they would like 
to suggest that this again not be emphasized as they will never 
agree to it. No one should be kidded, they remarked, by outward 
appearances aS most Europeans and even the British do not want

a unified Germany. ‘Most Europeans breathe a sigh of relief 
when the two Germanies are not together. Therefore, they 
would like to repeat that there must ‘be a de-emphasis on the 
question of a united Germany. " 

In comparison with previous years and previous 
visits to the GOR, it was found that the Socialist Unity 
Party of Germany leadership who spoke to the visitors expressed 
a better understanding of the current world situation and far 
more independence in regard to their relations with the Soviet 
Union,

LOOTH ANNIVERSARY MEETING 
OF THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL 


A source, who has furnished. reliable information 
Δ the past, in: mid-March, 1964, advised as follows, 


September, 1964, represents the 100th anniversary 
of the First International and in connection with this event, 
plans were being made to hold the 100th anniversary celebra-~ 
tion in London, England. However, it has now been decided 
that because it was impossible to ascertain beforehand what 
the official reaction of the British might be to such plans 
and because the British Government might restrict attendance 
by world communist representatives, the original plans had 
been modified. Now it has been decided that the celebration 
in connection with the 100th anniversary of the. First Inter- 
national will open with a small affair in London during 
September, 1964, and then immediately thereafter the festivities 
will be transferred to the German Democratic Republic. The 
German Democratic Republic will act in the capacity as offical 
host for the entire celebration. Although the First Interna- 
tional was founded in London, England, it is felt that the 
foregoing plans are acceptable ‘because the founder of the 
First International, Karl Marx, was in fact of German origin 
and, therefore, it is only logical that the German Democratic 
Republic honor him in this way,

KOLOBASHKIN referred to the Soviet letter dated 
February 12, 1964, addressed to all fraternal parties, advising 
that the Soviets were contemplating calling an international 
CP conference with respect to the Chinese-Soviet dispute, 
He stated that the aforesaid letter had been either "intercepted" 
by the Chinese or made available to the Chinese by one of the 
fraternal parties to which it had been sent. He then stated 
that the Chinese had sent to the CPSU a letter, with the 
content of which he was not familiar, protesting the fact 
that the CPSU had sent such a letter as it did to the 
other fraternal parties and had not sent a copy thereof to 
the CP of Ghina. The said Chinese letter, according to 
KOLOBASHKIN, was extremely critical of the CPSU and referred 
to the CPSU as "double-crossers," "double-dealers, "' vebauvinists, ” 
etc. ΝΣ ᾿ 


According to KOLOBASHKIN, the instant letter he 
was delivering to NY 694-S* was the CPSU reply to the Chinese 
letter of protest. Photographs of the CPSU letter of 2/22/64 
mentioned above are enclosed herewith for the Bureau and 
Chicago. 


ΝΥ 100-134637 


KOLOBASHKIN then gave to NY 694-S* a black empty 
suitcase, stating that on March 17, 1964, he would deliver to 
the informant $150,000.00 in cash in a similar suitcase. For 
security reasons, NY 694-S* was to give KOLOBASHKIN at that time 
the black empty suitcase which KOLOBASHKIN had given him on 
3/5/64. KOLOBASHKIN stated that on 3/17/64, in the event that 
everything were '"'0,.K.," the informant should go to a telephone 
booth at 1:05 p.m., at Whitehall and Broad Sts., the telephone 
number of which is WHitehall 4-9430, and place a piece of black 
tape on the left side of the telephone booth as an indication 
that it would be "0,K."" for the Soviets to mam deliver the money 
to him on the back staircase of the 15th floor of the informant's 
office building, 50 Broad St., at 1:15 p.m., on that date. 


In the event ‘that the situation were not "0.K," for 
this above-described transaction, the informant should follow 
the same procedure on 3/24/64. 


On 3/31/64, following the above-described procedure, 
the Soviets will attempt to deliver to NY 694-S* another 
$150,000.00 in cash. In the event that such transmittal 
of this money be impossible on that date, a similar procedure 
will be effected on 4/7/64. 


In connection with the above, NY 694-S* called to the 
attention of KOLOBASHKIN that in accordance with information he 
had received via radio from Moscow, the amount of money to be 
transmitted by the CPSU to the CPUSA was $600,000.00. KOLOBASHKIN 
stated that he had no information regarding this--that so far as 
he knew, the/ZHéuint of money to be transmitted to the CPUSA from 
the CPSU was the sum of $300,000.00. 


NY 694-S* and KOLOBASHKIN agreed that the walky-talky 
operation to date has been ineffective and that unless the reason 
therefarbe ascertained, a change in the method of communication 
must be devised. However, they decided to make one more attempt 
to determine whether or not the walky-talky operation could be 
utilized. It was agreed that on 3/15/64, between 11:00 and 11:15 
a.m., NY 694-S* would send a signal to the Soviets as he drove his 


- 2-= 


ΝΥ 100-134637 


automobile on 66th St., between Second Ave, and Lexington Ave, 
In the event that the walky-talky operation again prove a failure, 
the informant made the following arrangements with KOLOBASHKIN: 


At a lamp post on the southeast corner of Broad and 
South Sts. in New York City, the informant will place a piece 
of brown tape on the i: of the lamp post that faces east on 
each Wednesday, or a day following a radio reception, which tape 
_ can be viewed by the Soviets as they pass this intersection, 
while traveling in a car, coming from the east and going to the 
west. ‘The tape will be placed on the lamp ‘post at 12:00 noon 
by the informant and the Soviet car will observe it there at 
1:00 p.m. After placing the tape, the informant will proceed 
to the phone abovementioned, WH 4-9430, and remain in that booth 
at 2:00 p.m., at which time he will be called by the Soviets, and 
at which time they can χα their business. The informant 
also made the arrangement that this same lamp post is to be used 
in the event he failed to receive a radio message, in which 
instance, he will place on the lamp post a white-chalked XM 
which will indicate to the Soviets that he failed to receive 
the message, and they will repeat it the following day. 


Before terminating their meeting, NY 694-S* gave to 
KOLOBASHKIN, on microfilm, several messages, as follows: 


1) A ciphered~coded message, the plain text of which is the 
following: ! 


"To Central Committee, CPSU 


"Someone from the CPSU traveling in the USA told one 
or our CPUSA members that the Central Committee of the 
CPSU will take care of the financial needs of HENRY 
WINSTON when he returns home. Such an impression can 
do great harm in many ways. Only myself and MORRIS 
CHILDS should know of such secret financial matters. 
While we greatly appreciate and are thankful for such 


NY 100-134637 


a decision on your part, WINSTON or any similar 
CP member must never know of such help coming from 
your Central Committee. 

"GUS HALL - MORRIS CHILDS" 


2) A ciphered-coded message, the plain text of which is as 
follows: 


"HALL agrees and is interested that students of 

Negro and Latin American descent be sent to Howard 
University. We will try to contact as many as possible 
for that seminar," 


(Re above, see NY airtel, 1/22/64, reflecting on 

. page 11 thereof that KOLOBASHKIN, referring to an article . 
appearing in the 1/21/64 issue of "The New York Times," reflecting 
that a special training program to: prepare Negroes and Spanish~ 
speaking Americans for diplomatic and consular assignments would 
be offered next summer at Howard University, stated that the 
Soviets requested that it be arranged that as many”of our young 
people" as ‘possible be encouraged to participate in this course,) 


Partially coded messages, the plain text of which is as follows: 
3) "To CC, CPSU 


‘In the future anyone going to your Washington, Ὁ. C., 
Embassy or any other of your Embassies, asking or 
talking about various matters, such as LOUIS WEINSTOCK 
did when he went to your Washington, Ὁ. C., Embassy 
asking for an invitation that a young girl “be sent as

the CPS and other rarxisteleninist partios, intensified splitting and 
fractional activities din the international coomunist movement ani dexocratic | 
organizations, | 

The Jeanin Jih Puo in the issue of February 4, 196% openly called 
for a split ina ths communist movecent and thus demonstrated the unviliinmess 
of the leadership of the CPC to respond to positive proposals contained fa ths 
‘Actter of the Contral Comittes of the CPSU of iovexber 29, 1943, 

Under these conditions the Central Coomittes of the CPSU interastod tn 
rallying the communist movenent and desirous of outlying its rarxist-lconinist 
position which 18 slandercusly attacked by the Chinese press has found it 
necessary to discuss the satter at the Plenary reeting cf the Contral Cocmittes 
held in February and after that to give an open account of its views. The 
Central Coumittee of the CPSU decided to dnforze the fraternal parties of 
this decision, 


3e 

Ve had to tell them frankly that our proposals had failed to meet with 
any positive respond on the part of tho leaders of the CPC and that the latter 
continue to intensify their attacks against the general course of the world 
Communist movement, expanding their splitting activities, (6 have declared that 
we share the opinion of all fraternal parties, who really adhere to the positions 
of the Declaration and Statement on the necessity of repuising the dissentery 
and of wertaking collective zeasures for the consolidation of unity of the 
Communist movenent on the funcacental principles of farxiswLeninis:, ince again 
we have spoken for the expediency of calling tha Conference of tha Communist 
and lorkers! partios, which you too. had-ropeatedly mentioned in the past. 

Our letter comiemeod the striving of the leadership of thse CPC to set up 
factional bloc with ἃ special platforn uniter its hegenony’. 

vais is what was sald in the letter of the Central Cocuittes of the CPA of 
February 12, I964, 

Qur basic position on all the problers, contained in the ictter of February 
12, 1964 had been xnown to you long before our appeal to the fraternal parties. 

Before sending, then this letter wo had ropeatedly tried to discuss with the 
Cmtral Committee of the Chiness Communi st party the problems of consolidation of 
the wiity of communist sevenent, and it 1s not through cur fault that all these 
attecpts had brought no results, Since you perslatently disrezarded our varlous 
letters and appeals and, what is mora, depicted thn as a display of our 
weakness, there was no nexd and it was even useless to semi you the letter of 
‘February 12, 1964, After all that one can only wonder at your allegetions that 
the CPSU is "inciting a new carpaign against the cpct, “acting behind its back, 
43 ἃ double-dealer... comiuote splitting activities". It 15 not difficult to ace, | 


that the striving of the leaders of the CPC for exaggerating in every possible way

; . AN -» 4 
ν * 

the case of the letter of February 12, 196 ans tor civtorting ths true xcaning 

of this action of ths Central Comittee of the CPSU, represents still another 

awoard attenpt to shift the blame on someone olee, ἐσ hold the CPSU responsible | 
fcr the difficulties, which arose in ths Communist movement exclusively through 
the CFC leaders? fault. 
As our poonle's saying goss, it means to uss ἃ well known trick, whoa ἃ real 


culprit ds yelling: "Catch the thief!" 
fo find the real double-dealers end dissenters, who are “acting behind the 


backs of the fraternal parties", one should speak up about those, wh fer rany 


yoars has been conducting factional activities, one should eddress cnesslf to 
those, who openly substantiate the necessity of splitting the Comumist movanent 
ani oven declares it as "natural"... 


For instance, what would you think of the following: as far back as in 


June 1960 ccorade Liu Shaoechi and other leaders of the CPC, in their talks with 
the Albanian delegation slanderod against the CPSU, deliberately distertod tha 
home and foreign policy of our party, tried to incite the Albanian leaders apains 
the CPSU. Such actions of the Chinese leaders called forth the just Indisetion 
of the meabers of the Albanian celegatica, εἴ openly sald 90 to the Chinese 


σοῦ σα and informed the Central Ceomittes of the CPSU about it. 


This is exactly nothing olse but the real backestage, splitting activity 
against a fraternal party. 


it is posaible to endlesely cite the facts and, if necessary, to publish 


documents wmasking back-stage activity of the CPC leadership against CPSU and 
other fraternal parties that has been comiucted for a number of years. You were 
frankly told about it by the representatives of fraternal parties back at the 
Bucharest and Moscow Conferences. 


Se 
As for tho CPSU we do net conceal our rlews ond actions frou any fratornal 
party including tho CPC to the representatives of which wa had repeatedly 
explained our views and our position on all major problens.- 

The CPSU used its right = as can any Corzuniet Party « the right of 
consultation on any problem it is concerned with, Inspite of the fact that in 
your article of 4 February you perultted wild fabrications about cur Party and 
ite leaders the Central Comiltice of the CPSU did not allow itself to da- 
provoked, cid not engage itself in the squsble as required by "an edge against 
.an edge* principle, Coasidering it necessary to repulse your dissident activities 
we decided to consult again with the Central Comitteos of tho fraternal parties 
through party channels and to inform them of cur steps directed at the consolids- 
tion of the unity within the Cocramist covement. This fully corresponds to tho 
principles and standards of interrelations between the larxist-Loninist Portics, 
envisaged by the Declaration and the atement of the loscow Conferences, 

Tha lotter of the Contral Comittee of the CPSU to fraternal parties of 
12 February was called for by desp desire of our party to put an ent to the 
abnormal situation ourrently existing dn the Communist novenamt, Tho fivdecental 
interests of all larxist-Leninist parties, interests of protection of the purity 

of YarxclawLeninien havo been reflected in this lotter. 


As for your atteapts to jugzle with the wrds like “shaurinistic tad sancers'g 


“arbitrary actions® “despotian®, "bed sannors of ths sother party", "instructions | 
of ths allzighty®, ete. we should 831) you that the use of those expressions 
testifies only to the weeknese of your position and to your desire to thus cone 
your own actions which you are trying to attribute to us, 

For the last four years the fraternal yarties cf tho whols world have been 
applying to the Central Committes of the CPSU with an appeal tc dial with the 


6. 


problem from the point of view of mutual interests, to give τὸ attexpts to 
impose one's erroneous "general lins® on the world Comumniat movencnt. 
However, the leadership of the CFC oct only disresards the opinion of 
the fraternal parties but with increasing arrogance poses as the sole heir 
of the founders of Mareiarleninian, as the suprece judge in theory anc 
practice of cocmunia:, Dut nobody else but the leadership of cro is trying 
to dictate to the ccemunist parties of the capitalist comtries when to 
start @ revolution ani how to carry it out. 


Tris leadership of CFC pacses categorical decisions a3 to which country 
should be regarded as socialist and waich steuld not, It is nobody else 


but. this jesliership that labels entire parties as *right® or *xrens! ani 


deponting on whem it likes declares sone pople to be “outstanding marxists" 
ani others ΞΟ ΕΣ revisionists*, 

Your chauvinistic minners eculd te tracod In your lotost icttor to the 
CPSU in which you denand that the letter of the Central Cocmittes of CPS 
be sent to yous You are not asking you demand, — 

By what right, we wonder? Do you really believe, that somebody will 
sericusly accept ywar tone, get afraid ent rush to carry out your ovory decand? ἢ 
It Looks not only rude but ridiculous δὰ well. 

Your letter and its premeditated rufe tone make us to reditate upon its 
purpose, In fact nobody will believe that such an Inproper message was sont 
in the interests of stronsthening friendship with CPSU, about which you tell 
over and over again to your people and the whole world communist novanent 
deceiving thom. Everybody who will raad this letter, will find out that its 
aim was to widen the differences and aggravate the situation in the irternational 
communist movement, If the leaders of CPC were really concerned about the 
solidarity and wiity of the weld οαπου σι movenent they should heve given 


with the fraternal parties cf'the whole world, : 

Gn ite part the Central Counlttee of the CPSU is rcady to do everything nd 
gible in order to wilte the world comumist movecient on tho basis of the 
fundamental principles of Marxleo-loninia:,. 

ΤῊ first and above all our party considers ths interests of wuiity 
of. world corzunist movacent and is ready to continua its efforts aimed at tho | 
norralization of its relations with ths cic. 

Tho Contral Committee of tas CPSU oxpresses its profound confidenca that 
the world covmumiet novenont will overcoms the presmat difficulties, further 
consolidate its ranks wxter the Lanwr of larxeingcls-Iinin and achieve new 
successes in the strugsio for the greet cause of the working class, for tho

INFORMATION REGARDING POSSIBLE 


FUTURE INTERNATIONAL. MEETING OF 
WORLD COMMUNIST AND WORKERS PARTIES. 


A source, who has furnished'rellable information 
in the past, during mid-March, 1964, advised as follows, 


‘Based on his contacts and discussions with leading 
Communist Party (CP) representatives, Norman Freed, CP of 
Canada representative to the "World Marxist Review," official 
theoretical organ of the international communist movement, 
which. headquarters in Prague, Czechoslovakia, is of the opinion 
that there will definitely be convened. at some foreseeable 


future date an international conference or meeting of Communist 


and Workers Parties. However, as of late February, 1964, it 
a8 ted known that no date for such a conference had been 
selecte 


In regard to the convening of such a conference which 
would seek out a solution to ideological differences existing 
between the CP of the Soviet Union and. the CP of China, the 
CP of the Soviet Union in February, 1964, circulated amongst 
the various Communist Parties a. confidential letter, Since 


this letter suggested that there might be the necessity for 


calling such a conference,, certain parties, among which were 
the Rumanian Workers Party and the CP of Italy, requested that 
the CP of the Soviet Union hold in abeyance any positive 
planning regarding such a meeting, However, prior to the 
issuance of their letter, the CP of the Soviet Union and sone 
discussion with representatives of the CP of France πὰ had 
convinced that party to openly support such a conference, 

The French, however, previously had been in opposition, like 


‘the Italian CP, to taking any action which would cause an open

split or fight within the international communist movement. 


After having circulated its confidential letter 
and receiving the: open endorsement for such a conference from 
the CP of ‘France, the CP of the Soviet Union, mostly on the 
basis of pleas from the Rumanian Workers Party and the CP of 
Italy, agreed to hold all further preparations. for ἃ conference 
in abeyance, AS a result, the leadership of the CP of France 
is now very unhappy with the CP of the Soviet Union and the 
CP of France feels that they have been placed in an embarrassing 
position and are now subject to criticism from their own member- 
Ship as well as subject to criticism of other parties, mainly 
the. CP of China,

INFORMATION CONCERNING DIFFERENCES 
EXISTING BETWEEN THE RUMANIAN: 
WORKERS PARTY AND THE COMMUNIST 
PARTY OF THE SOVIET UNION: 


A source, who has furnished reliable information 
in the past, in mid-March, 1964, advised as follows: 


While no responsible communist leader in the 
socialist countries of Europe desires to openly discuss 
the matter, the differences currently existing between 
the Rumanian Workers. Party and the Communist Party (CP) of 
the Soviet Union as well as other socialist bloc country 
parties encompass more than economic differences alone, 
Although the Rumanian Workers Party is not lined up with 
the CP of China, they are using the ideological differences 
between the CP of the Soviet Union and the CP of China to 
apply more pressure on the Soviet Union in order that they 
can secure more autonomy in their internal as well as in 
their international affairs. Thus when the CP of the Soviet 
Union recently dispatched its confidential letters to the 
various Communist Parties suggesting the possibility of 


-holding an international meeting to discuss differences 


existing between themselves and the CP of China on an ideo- 
logical level as well as on a governmental level between the 
USSR and the Peoples Republic of China, the Rumanians 
indicated they did not favor such a meeting at that time. 
They pleaded that such a conference should not be held then 
and that one more effort ought to be made to prevent a split 
in the movenent, 


Based on thelr plea, the Rumanian Workers Party 
formed a delegation of Party representatives led by Ion 
Gheorghe Maurer, Chairman of the Council of Ministers and 
a member of a political bureau of the Rumanian Workers Party, 


INFORMATION CONCERNING DIFFERENCES 
EXISTING BETWEEN THE RUMANIAN 
WORKERS PARTY AND THE COMMUNIST 
PARTY OF THE SOVIET UNION 


which they hoped could meet once more with representatives of 
the CP of China in an effort to resolve some existing ideo- 
logical differences and avoid the necessity for a conference 
which would bring about a split in the movement. Maurer -was 
chosen to head this delegation by the Rumanian Workers Party 
because he was considered. the closest among their leadership 
to the Chinese and closest to.some degree to the Chinese: point 
of view. The Rumanians felt that by heading their delegation 
with such an individual, the Chinese would pay more attention 
and look with more sympathy at what he might have to offer.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS OF TRIP TO 
INDONESIA BY NORMAN FREED, COMMUNIST 
PARTY OF CANADA :REPRESENTATIVE TO 
THE "WORLD MARXIST -REVIEW," ΤΆΛΟΌΕ, 


‘CZECHOSLOVAKIA, JANUARY, i964 


A source, who has furnished reliable information 
in the past, in mid-March, 1964, advised as follows, 


During late December, 1963, Norman Freed, a member 
of the Communist Party (CP) of Canada and that Party" 5 
representative to the "World Marxist Review," official 
theoretical organ of the international communist movement, 
and a CP of Bulgaria representative to the same publication 


traveled to Indonesia where they spent a period of approxi- 


mately three weeks in January, 1964, as guests of the CP of 
Indonesia. During the period spent in Indonesia, these 
individuals had: numerous meetings with the leadership of the 
CP of Indonesia, including Dipa N, Aidit, the General Secretary 
of the CP of Indonesia and a member without portfolio of the 
cabinet of President Sukarno; M, H, Lukman, and others. In 
addition during this period, Freed and his Bulgarian companion, 
as guests of the CP of Indonesia, were provided an extended 
tour of the country. 


Following. his return to Prague, Freed reported 


back τὸ ΟΡ representatives the results of his talks with CP 
leaders in Indonesia, his observations and conclusions con- 


cerning his completed trip, the essence of which was as follows, 


In early January, 1964, Aidit noted that President 
Sukarno had talked to him and told him that just prior thereto 
he had seen United States Attorney General Robert F, Kennedy

and was still in the process of continuing discussions with 
that individual. According to Sukarno, he had promised 
Attorney General Kennedy that there would be no confronta- 
tion of forces of Indonesia and Malaysia at this time, 
Sukarno explained to Aidit that he made this promise because 
Indonesia was not then in a position "to do it right now," 
Sukarno had further stated that by avoiding a fight with the 


Americans at this time, they had also avoided enabling the 
Americans to save the British in that area, 


Ε 


In response to an inquiry for a characterization 
as to what type of person Sukarno really was, Aidit stated 
"Sukarno represents the left section of the bourgeoisie," 


On the topic of nationalization of industry, Aidit 
commented that there are two types being utilized today in 
Indonesia, One is in the form of the true definition of the 
word for there is a complete takeover by the government of ι 


private ownership. The other form is what they call 


"Indonesianization."” Here they replace the foreign techni- 
cians and workers and substitute in their place Indonesian 
technicians and workers and give to these individuals the 
power ‘to operate the plant, but the state does not take 
over the physical ownership of the property. 


In regard to the number of persons of Chinese 
ancestry residing today in Indonesia, Aidit remarked that 
they number approximately four million, One-half of these, 
he noted, desired and have asked to be allowed to -return. to 
the Peoples Republic of China. The other half of these 
Chinese constitute the upper class and well-to-do Chinese, 
at least by Indonesian standards, and they desire to remain, 
When those who have indicated a desire to return to the 
Peoples Republic of China finally return, the Peoples Republic 
of China takes over possession of their property in Indonesia, 
liquidates it, and turns over a portion of the proceeds to 
the CP of Indonesia, In this way, the CP of China can give ; 
the CP of Indonesia subsidies and aid without a direct ι 
allocation or transfer of funds from the mainland. In addition,

CZECHOSLOVAKIA, JANUARY, 1964 


Aidit remarked that many of the Chinese who are remaining in 
Indonesia, elther because they are sympathetic to the CP of 
China and/or are gambling on the course of future events, 
make substantial contributions to the Peoples Republic of 
China, Some of these funds are also given in part to the CP . 
of Indonesia as financial subsidies. 


| Aidit was asked if the CP of Indonesia ‘was not 
"walking a tightrope" because they behave so much like the 
Indonesia Government and what might happen if the government 
should abruptly change its policies, According to Aldit, 

the CP of Indonesia has 55 per cent of the armed forces and 
85 per cent of the personnel of the air force in their hands. 
Thus he noted if they are confronted with such a situation, 
the ansver 15 evident, 


In regard to the CP itself, Aidit noted that they 
had three and one-half million members, He felt that in any 
election or vote, they could draw 50 per cent of the total 
vote, Aidit, however, pointed out that they were not 
interested at this point in urging that any elections be held. 


Throughout Indonesia the CP has established an 
extensive network of schools, Since illiteracy of the 
Indonesian people is extremely high, these schools range from 
those teaching basic courses in reading and writing to reg- 
ularly scheduled Party educational classes, It is the belief 
of the CP of Indonesia that they must educate the people in 
order that they can be taught to read and understand their 
Party material. Throughout Indonesia they have also established 
numerous book stores and propaganda outlets and literature is 
available in several languages, Throughout discussions, 
Aidit spoke continuously of the need for Indonesianization of 
Marxisn and the necessity of making Marxism an Indonesian 
product. From his total remarks, it was evident that the CP 
of Indonesia was distorting Narxisn, 


In discussing socialism, Aidit remarked that the 
only two countries in the world today who are building socialism
